Product Summary

Thrust brake is a device used to retard the speed of moving machinery and to stop it accurately to the desired position. The braking force is applied to the brake shoed by a pre-stressed comprising spring. The shoed press on the rotating brake drums retarding its speed and finally stops it. The releasing of the brake drum and compressing of the spring is done by thruster.

A brake spring is fixed on the main arm and is pre-loaded by a lock nut on the lever. The pre-tension in the spring decides the braking torque. The thruster is fitted on the base by a hinged pin. When the thruster is not energized, the brake is applied and the drum cannot rotate. As the piston travels upwards the angle lever turns, pushes the brake rod and compresses the brake spring. Simultaneously, the brake lever on the other side of the wheel is retraced. When the first lever reaches the stop on the brake base member the brake lever at the thruster begins to move, releasing the brake drum.
